Yes, it was. It would be better to make it with "boolean"
and return true if sumission was successful. Anyway, it's not out of
the patch.

'ret' is not return value any more so I want to make it clear.
While I read this mail, I found to miss write-fail case.
if zram_bvec_rw returns error, we shouldn't invoke page_endio. :(
Will send a patch.

Thanks.
